Respuesta :


Rectangle:

A = l x w

l = A / w

Plug in

l = (5/6) / (2/3)

l = 5/6 x 3/2

l = 5/4


How many times greater is the length than the width?

l / w = (5/4) / (2/3)

= 5/4 x 3/2

= 15/8


Length is 15/8 times greater than width

1. length= 5/4 foot

2.  Length is 15/8 times greater than width.

What is Area of rectangle?

The area of rectangle is the product of the length and the breadth.

Are of rectangle=length* breadth

Given: Area of Rectangle: 5/6 sq. foot, breadth= 2/3 foot

Area of rectangle be,

Area= length* breadth

5/6= length*2/3

length= 5/6*3/2

length= 5/4 foot

B) length: breadth

=5/4:2/3

=5/4*3/2

=15/8

Thus, Length is 15/8 times greater than width.
